Chapter 38: Lin Yao's Story 1
After returning from Spring City, grandma's health has not been very good, and because she is a full-time wife, my aunt took the initiative to take care of grandma.
Anne's mother went on a business trip again, the school notified her to return to school after the eleventh long holiday, this was the first day of the eleventh holiday, Anne was home alone and did not go out, bored afternoon, Anne lay on the bed in the bedroom and fell asleep.
Ding Dong ~ Ding Dong ~ Ding Dong ~ The doorbell is ringing.
"Annie~Dingdong~Annie Open the Door~"
"Who?" Anne rolled over in a daze and shouted.
"I, Lin Yao~Hurry open the door~" The voice outside the door shouted eagerly.
"Oh ~ here ~ Wait a minute ~"
Anne, who got up in a daze, suddenly shivered coldly. A month before the heating was turned on, the room in the north was really like the winter in Jiangcheng, cold and frightening! Anne casually wrapped a blanket around her body for a day, and went to open the door in her autumn clothes and pants.
"Annie~Hurry up~" Lin Yao shouted almost pleadingly.
"Eh~ What's wrong?" Anne asked, rubbing her eyes and pulling the blanket tight.
"Annie~ Can I hide in your house?" As soon as Lin Yao entered the door, he put down the small travel bag on his back and said.
"What's wrong? Da Yaoyao? As he spoke, he pulled Lin Yao to close the door and walked towards the small bedroom.
"Annie~You must help me~" Lin Yao sat nervously on the bed, grabbed Annie's arm with both hands and said nervously.
"I'll definitely help you, don't worry, no matter what happens, as long as I can do it, I will definitely not ignore you~"
"You'll let me stay at your house, okay?"
"Okay, no problem, why not?"
"Would your mom agree?"
"It's okay, my mom is on a business trip, but even if my mom is here, you can stay at my house, it's no problem!"
"Tell me, what the hell is going on?" Anne looked at Lin Yao's helpless appearance and said.
"My dad is here, and he wants to take me away!"
"What? Didn't he ignore you when he was young? Why is he taking you away now? ”
"Yesterday, he suddenly came from Pengzhou, and we didn't know anything before he came, and I don't know how he found our family."
"Where's my uncle?"
"My brother-in-law was sent to Gusu on business."
"He came yesterday and was going to take me away. My mom didn't agree, and he started beating people, and I got into a fight with him, and I couldn't beat him, and then I ...... Woo woo woo~"
Anne had never seen Lin Yao like this. Lin Yao has always been very strong, she must have been greatly wronged when she cried so sadly today.
"What happened?" Anne asked with concern while taking a tissue from the paper drawer and giving it to Lin Yao.
"Then I ran away and didn't dare to go back all night."
"You didn't go back? Where have you been? Why don't you come to me? Anne said distressedly.
"I just spent the night in the basement, and I told my mom that I went to hide from my classmates."
Anne was very sad, although she didn't know what was going on, but Lin Yao's appearance in front of her was too distressing. Anne stood up and hugged Lin Yao, who was sitting, and Lin Yao cried and talked about the past of the Lin family and the origin of today's emergency:
When Lin Yao was 6 years old, Lin's father was an alcoholic who didn't care about his family, he often got drunk, and beat Lin's mother when he was drunk.
Long-term alcoholism + domestic violence has caused Lin Ma to suffer major injuries all year round, and Lin Ma has thought about divorce many times, but she was strongly opposed by Lin Yao's grandmother and grandfather.
Lin Yao's grandmother and grandfather are typical patriarchal parents, Lin Yao's grandmother gave birth to three daughters, including Lin's mother, and the last child finally gave birth to a boy, which is Lin Yao's brother-in-law.
Since childhood, Lin Yao's grandparents have beaten and scolded their three daughters, and only spoiled their brother-in-law alone.
It was the mid-nineties, Pengzhou was a traditional small city, and Lin Yao's grandfather felt that if Lin Yao's mother divorced, it would lose the face of their two elders and make them unable to raise their heads among relatives and friends, so the two elders never agreed to Lin's mother's divorce.
Father Lin's drunkenness and domestic violence were the most serious, and he chased Mother Lin three streets with a kitchen knife one night. Despite this, Lin Yao's grandparents still refused to let Lin's mother divorce.
Lin Yao cried bitterly when she said this, Lin Yao said that she would never forgive her grandparents, where in the world are such parents, obviously their daughter's life and safety have been threatened, but for the sake of their own face, their daughter is not allowed to divorce.
Anne has been standing with a blanket draped, grabbing the blanket on her chest with one hand, and holding Lin Yao's head with the other, gently stroking Lin Yao.
At such a moment, Anne always didn't know what kind of language to use to comfort the other party, and she was afraid that saying the wrong thing would make the other party even more sad, so she could only gently stroke Lin Yao's head.
Lin Yao wiped a handful of snot and continued: "Later, my mother finally divorced him, that year, I was 6 years old, after the divorce, our mother and daughter moved out of the house, in a bungalow on the outskirts of the city, rented a 10-square-meter bungalow rental house, that room, only a one-meter-five bed and a dilapidated wardrobe bought from a waste collector, at that time my mother sold clothes in the shopping mall, and the income from selling clothes was not very stable, my mother took me alone, and life was very difficult, But at least you don't have to be chased with a kitchen knife to cut it. Lin Yao couldn't breathe when she cried, and told Anne about her past like pouring beans in one breath, Anne was not only distressed, but also distressed.
I stood like this for an hour. Anne couldn't stand any longer, so she sat down along the bed.
"After we moved into the bungalow, he would occasionally call my mom when he drank too much at night, and then my mom simply changed her phone number."
"This man is really hateful!" Anne, a person who has always been cautious in her words and deeds, finally couldn't help it and complained.
Anne saw that Lin Yao's tears were dry, and hurriedly went to the restaurant to get a cup of hot water for Lin Yao.
Lin Yao continued: "Later, my brother-in-law's work was transferred to Tangcheng, and my brother-in-law helped my mother find a job as a cleaner in my brother-in-law's unit, so we came to Tangcheng with my brother-in-law, thinking that in this way, we could completely avoid him and live a quiet life."
"That's it, get out of the way!"
"But last night, I don't know where he found out about our new home, he came directly and opened the door. My mother and I were terrified, and as soon as he entered the door, he said that he wanted to take me away, but my mother refused, so he started beating my mother again, and I rushed out in a fit of anger and started a fight with him. ”
Anne trembled with fright when she heard this, and quickly asked, "Did he hit you?" Are you hurt? ”
"I'm fine, he didn't hit me hard. I don't have a lot of strength, and I didn't suffer a loss, but I had a little nosebleed! Lin Yao's stubborn expression made Anne sad, and this time Anne cried loudly.
The two children who were crying with their heads in their arms were crying late at night, and the tears dried up, and the two of them did not eat dinner, so they lay on the bed together and fell asleep.
Annie's single bed was too small, and Anne and Lin Yao were asleep on the double bed in the big bedroom, with tears in the corners of their eyes!
